Good day to ya'all

I would like to hide my status bar within every app (Specifically the browser),yeah i heard a lot about immersive mode, but what it does it also disables the soft keys and keyboard. Which disrupts my workflow. I am currently running Darklord's N5 RC 2.1, and the option to hide the status bar for samsung's internet browser is missing, which is a bit of a downer as my stock lollipop rom had this option, are there any alternatives? I also have a phobia with AMOLED burn ins that is why i would have wanted it to hide the status bar as many times as possible. :)

You're so fast, I'll test with CM12.1. Thanks!

Edit : If I already have

TWRP 2.8.x

it's no require to flash

FOTA formater

right?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
The cleaner is unneeded, flashing is enough.

What I could advise would be to make a final backup

with the one version of TWRP, move it to a computer,

then update to have a way back.

I have restored an old backup with the 3.0.0 version,

so completely doable.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] lop2lop:
I have CM13.0 and I had TWRP 2.8.7.0 and I did this :

Flash FOTA cleaner

Reboot to recovery ( CM recovery )

then apply update , TWRP3

reboot

I tried "reboot to recovery" in CM recovery but still it was CM recovery ! I rebooted and tried to boot into recovery using volume keys but still the same !

so I booted into ROM and tried again and it worked !

Thanks Adrian ! :svetius::svetius::svetius: <3

so i'm with the helium kernel will this be gone when i flash this ?

Helium kernel is a kernel, TWRP recovery is a recovery, they won't delete each other.

The TWRP recovery will be flashed to the FOTA partition so it can't be lost with kernel / ROM update.

Thanks for your hard work bro

Does it work on stock???

I'm on stock and I want to install CM13, So does it work on stock or it will cause a brick.

Thanks in advance

---------- Post added at 09:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:06 PM ----------

I bought the device yesterday

So I have a very good experience in flashing and installing ROMs .

But I what I want to ask you is a method I wanna try to install it.

First I'm on stock sowoud it work on stock.

Second I want to download the IMG from twrp.me and flashing it using this command

Fastboot flash boot boot.IMG

Would that work ?????!!!

Thanks you for your hard work and sorry for silly questions.​
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
Basically what you're saying is the easiest & safest way to do it yes,

just download the ROM, the TWRP img, and once device unlocked using Sony's way,

flash the TWRP as a boot img (it will only boot to TWRP),

and simply do a factory reset + flash ROM from there.

Globally that's what I did in the 5 minutes after receiving my Xperia T ;).
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] n78 shadow:
Yeah flashing for ever:laugh::D

Thanks a lot bro, in fact you're the only reason who made me buy this phone, I develop themes for CM and I needed a stable one and you provided everything to this device.

I hope you. Will port CM14

BTW is it possible???

Again thank you very much
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
:D Great :good:.

I am not at liberty to disclose that information...

No joking, answer is I totally don't know,

priority will be the Xperia SP of course,

but given the major changes, N will be a though step.

Time will tell, and I usually don't answer those questions ;).
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] n78 shadow:
No problem, This's totally your right.

I know it's going to be hard, I read that google included some lines to the bootloader that prevent booting if there was a modifications in the system.

They say it's for security but as we see it, it wil make it hard to root and modify your phone especially when you will buy one that have android n as stock.

It will force to unlock the bootloader.

Thank you very much bro:good:

Reboot problem

i have just flashed latest TWRP for huashan, but it do not reboot normaly. it always boots into recovery. what can i do?

thanks in advance.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
If you have installed the .IMG file it's normal, because it is flashed as boot image. You have to flash the zip and then a ROM or at least a ROM boot.img. this way you'll have your recovery into fota partition and the ROM will boot normally

Is there anyway to flash this while on CM.

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] TechnoSparks:
Here is the fota zip. [link removed] (Note: File will be deleted after a while to prevent fragmentation)

Also, since you flashed the img file via flashtool, it placed the recovery into your boot partition, effectively making your only ROM, well, recovery. Lol.

To recover from this, first, flash the fota zip so that you would have your recovery. Afterwards, reflash your AOSP 7 zip (dirty flash). Reboot.

Hi I'm unable to shift to TWRP. I had installed CWM 6.0.5.1 as part of an attempt to flash CM11 to my phones years back. So right now for TWRP ..... I copied twrp-3.0.2-20160814-fota-huashan.zip to my phone, booted into CWM, flashed the zip (flash successful), but nothing happens when I reboot into recovery- I'm still in the same CWM. I also tried fastboot but when I press the volume down button and plug the usb cable in, the phone just reboots and the charging icon appears.

Am I doing something? Any better suggestions?

Managed to push image with fastboot on a Windows 7 pc. Issue was mostly likely related to drivers.

I have the stock ROM and I wanted to install TWRP to make it's backup.

I tried to flash the FOTA zip, but I have the "E: Unknown Command" error. Did I brick my Xperia SP?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Zawisz:
No, you dont brick it. Try flash any kernel, maybe this helps system boot up, and if you have root flash TWRP with official app next time from play store. I have problems with flash to boot sometimes, like in AOSP 7.1 with recovery after flash.

I updated my old huashan with cm11 after quite some time and I got severe problems doing the fastboot flashing.

Main problem was the intermediate update to Win10 x64, so the Sony/Google driver for the fastboot USB device had gone. The probably easiest way to install it is zadig

Start the tool, start the Xperia SP in fastboot mode and install the WinUSB driver from the tool when the fastboot device appears in Zadig.

I can't try the easy method because when I try to enter fastboot (volume up and insert usb cable) the phone shows the sony logo, vibrates twice and then starts my old rom.

/edit: I now flashed the cleaner zip and then the fota zip. The situation is unchanged. I tried rebooting to rom inside philz, I tried booting to recovery from rom and I tried the volume up method ´.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
The ROM // bootimage needs to support it. All ROMs since at least 2 years do, but if you're on a very old ROM,

you're stuck with the integrated recovery that was included in the old bootimage.

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] globe79:
[MENTION=2233641]AdrianDC[/MENTION] when I flash twrp-3.2.3-20180810-boot-huashan.img as a kernel in fastboot mode (Flashtool 0.9.25.0) and then flash system.zip, gapps.zip, etc. from within TWRP (my usual, unsinkable procedure) everything is fine for ages (no matter Nougat, Oreo, AOSP, LineageOS). But when I tried to flash twrp-3.2.3-20180810-fota-huashan.zip from within running temporary TWRP (installed the way above), it boots only to TWRP when rebooted (I can't tell which - kernel one or FOTA one), but hangs during flashing system.zip (few percents) or freezes and reboots after few minutes/seconds of operation.

Have anyone observed such freezes on C5303? It happens to me only when FOTA TWRP is flashed.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Evilmonk100:
Can i boot into fastboot mode if no sytem(custom rom) is installed ?. And also can i use this command fastboot flash boot ? Also after flashing cleaner fota zip. And followed installation procedure given as above recovery get installed?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] globe79:
Hi. Sure you can. Connect Xperia SP via USB cable. Holding Volume Up and pressing power will take you to fastboot mode directly (blue led). You can flash TWRP as boot image. I'm not sure what you mean later. When you flash TWRP as a boot image you use TWRP as a system exclusively. When you tell TWRP to install real system image (you won't spend much time inside TWRP, will you), it will overwrite itself. You'll stay with no recovery, but the running system. That's the purpose of FOTA (if you need dirty flashing or changing kernel to helium, etc.), but I (personally) consider it unstable solution.

Hope I clarified and helped :)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Evilmonk100:
What is dirty flash? What is your Unsatble solution?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] globe79:
Read my previous post to see, what happened to me and why I can't use TWRP in FOTA mode. Nobody reported similar issues. I consider dirty flash anything you flash without wiping dalvik, ART, etc. I would recommend you to read deeply through the whole topic before you begin.

EDIT: I got the FOTA TWRP working and persistent on my Xperia SP today. Flashed boot image TWRP, then booted. Flashed system and add-ons from SD card, and FOTA TWRP as a last step preceding reboot. I'll observe the behaviour of LineageOS between updates. Will it freeze or not.

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] globe79:
It looks like off-topic. On a corporate network it may be a policy set by your administrator. On home computer it can indicate corruption of some files related to Windows Explorer. Perhaps it can also be folder protection provided by Windows Defender (introduced in a fall update)...
